That scratch is nothing. I'm not even sure that brass came from the Enfield. It was just an illustration of how far in a spent casing went before having to be forced. It corresponds with how far the spent brass comes out before it extracts freely after firing.
Those are "dig" marks on the brass in the 3rd picture. The bolt and receiver numbers do not match. I have Forster head space gauges for .308. I removed the extractor from the bolt yesterday, and the bolt closed on the field gauge. Is the .308 gauge the proper one for this rifle or is there a 7.62X51 gauge? Would there be a difference?
A live round of the same ammo I was shooting in it drops smoothly into the chamber and drops out freely, so it is only after firing there is an issue. I'm beginning to think this may end up a parts gun.
